529 ranging from a warning message on the console, to halting the machine.
530 Your processor must be a Pentium or newer to support this - check the
531 flags in /proc/cpuinfo for mce. Note that some older Pentium systems
532 have a design flaw which leads to false MCE events - hence MCE is
533 disabled on all P5 processors, unless explicitly enabled with "mce"
534 as a boot argument. Similarly, if MCE is built in and creates a
535 problem on some new non-standard machine, you can boot with "nomce"
536 to disable it. MCE support simply ignores non-MCE processors like
537 the 386 and 486, so nearly everyone can say Y here.

688 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
689 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
690 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
691 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
692 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
693 "high memory".
694
695 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
696 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
697 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
698 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
699 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
700 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
701 possible.
702
703 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
704 answer "4GB" here.
705
706 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
707 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
708 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully

710 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
711 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
712
713 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
714 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
715 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of

917 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
918 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
919 coprocessor or this emulation.
920
921 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
922 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
923 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
924 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
925 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
926 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
927 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
928 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
929
930 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
931 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.

938 ---help---
939 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
940 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
941 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
942 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
943 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
944 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
945 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
946 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
947 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
948
949 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
950 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
951 as well:
952
953 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
954 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
955 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
956 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
957 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
958 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
959 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
960
961 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
962 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
963 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
964
965 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
966 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1022 value on the stack just before the return address, and validates
1023 the value just before actually returning. Stack based buffer
1024 overflows (that need to overwrite this return address) now also
1025 overwrite the canary, which gets detected and the attack is then
1026 neutralized via a kernel panic.
1027
1028 This feature requires gcc version 4.2 or above, or a distribution
1029 gcc with the feature backported. Older versions are automatically

1043 bool "kexec system call"
1044 help
1045 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1046 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1047 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1048 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1049
1050 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1051
1052 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1053 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1054 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
1055 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
1056 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

1065 which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
1066 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1067 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1068 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
1069 PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image
1070 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).
1071 For more details see Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt

1079 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1080
1081 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1082 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1083 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1084 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1085 address.
1086
1087 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1088 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1089 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1090 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1091 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1092 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1093 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1094 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1095
1096 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump, leave
1097 the value here unchanged to 0x100000 and set CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
1098 Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux for capturing the crash dump
1099 change this value to start of the reserved region (Typically 16MB
1100 0x1000000). In other words, it can be set based on the "X" value as
1101 specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM" command line boot parameter
1102 passed to the panic-ed kernel. Typically this parameter is set as
1103 crashkernel=64M@16M. Please take a look at
1104 Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt for more details about crash dumps.
1105
1106 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1107 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1108 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1109 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1110 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1111 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1112 line.
1113

1206 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1207 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1208 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1209 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1210 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1211 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1212
1213 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1214 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1215
1216 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1217 machines with more than one CPU.
1218
1219 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1220 and more information, read <file:Documentation/pm.txt> and the
1221 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1222 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1223
1224 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1225 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1226 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1227
1228 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1229 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1230 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1231 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1232
1233 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1234 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1235 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1236 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1237 APM in your BIOS).
1238
1239 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1240 "weird" problems:
1241
1242 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1243 enabled.
1244 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1245 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1246 the "no387" option to the kernel
1247 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1248 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1249 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1250 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1251 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1252 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1253 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1254 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1255 11) exchange RAM chips
1256 12) exchange the motherboard.

1515 This driver provides a clock event source based on the MFGPT
1516 timer(s) in the CS5535 and CS5536 companion chip for the geode.
1517 MFGPTs have a better resolution and max interval than the
1518 generic PIT, and are suitable for use as high-res timers.
